No: No, tinnitus and equilibrium are inner ear problems and are not a result of any dental treatment. You should see an ear, nose and throat doctor to have your ears checked and evaluate the equilibrium issues.

No: The dental crown will have no direct effect on your tinnitus equilibrium issue. The material composing the various crowns are safe for use in the body. If you had any TMJ and/or ear problems, the scheduled appointment time for the crown procedure may aggravate your situation. Prolonged opening of mouth and manipulation of tissues can be a strain on your muscles and jaw. Talk to your dentist.

No: So far there is no evidence or connection established between ill-fitted dental crown and tinnitus equilibrium. There are many causes that might trigger tinnitus equilibrium. please consult with your ENT doctor for evaluation.
